Raptor Closure:​Shirt T​ail Peak is CLOSED to all activities, including rock climbing, effective immediately to protect Golden Eagles nesting in the area. The closure is federally mandated by the US Fish and Wildlife Service.

Description

The climb is so-so. The climb starts with an easier wide crack that gets thiner and harder. A good stance comes just before the overhanging jamming crux. This route is merit is in its proximity to GOOD routes like Die Heeda Rule (which is just 6-8 feet right of PTC). The area favorites Brother Jug and Tombstone are just down and right from there as well.

Prime Time Climb has a hard and definite crux that will work most people a little on their thin-off-size jamming. The actual difficulty is hand size dependent.

There are some fixed anchors to rap on Hawk Eagle, but if you go, take some long webbing and add a few or replace some.

Protection

A standard rack with set of cams does pretty nicely if you add one large piece for the bottom (which is not hard). Crux is more or less off-hand-sized.
